Onboarding
Bully Free School Project
To onboard students this year with Project Time norms and expectations, the students went through checkpoint activities and completed a final product. The final product was a poster that illustrated how to make Carter Lomax a Bully Free School. The Cognitive Skill associated with the project was Norms and Active Listening. Students were given the cognitive skill rubric for Norms and Active Listening, then scored their group based on the language in the cognitive skill rubric. Below is pictures from Mrs. Lambert's class creating their posters.
Concept Units have begun!

Parent Connect
You will be receiving an email from Summit Learning inviting you to login to the platform and see your student's information. Having your own Parent Connect account allows you to view your child's goals for the week, current grades, and dues dates for Focus Areas, Projects, and Concept Units.
When you receive the email from Summit Learning, you will only need to follow the link, watch the video, and create your own password for the account. If you do not receive an email, contact your child's homeroom teacher.
